Chapter 2800
Liu Ruyan and the Third Elder were filled with fury, their faces turning a deep shade of red, all the while worrying about Kai!
Despite Kai’s impressive strength, which allowed him to confidently confront even a fifth-ranked cultivator from the Combined Body realm, the situation had taken a turn for the worse. With Kai frozen in place, a mere light slap from Gao Qijie could shatter him into pieces!
“Who says you’ve won? You might be celebrating a bit too soon!”
At that moment, Kai’s voice slowly broke through the tension!
Gao Qijie was taken aback and quickly examined Kai, still encased in ice, and asked in confusion, “You’re frozen, how can you still speak?”
Gao Qijie leaned in closer to get a better look at how Kai was managing to talk despite his frozen state!
“Not only can I talk, but I can also give you a beating…”
As he spoke, the frost enveloping Kai’s body melted away in an instant, and with a swift motion, he delivered a powerful slap!
Gao Qijie, standing right before Kai and focused on him, never anticipated the sudden disappearance of the frost or the fact that Kai would strike. He wasn’t prepared at all!
Slap!
The force of the slap was so intense that it sent Gao Qijie flying, landing heavily outside the ring!
Slowly getting back on his feet, Gao Qijie glared at Kai, his face half red and swollen from the blow!
Some of his teeth had fallen out, mixed with the blood he spat out!
“Damn it, I’ll kill you…”
Fuming, Gao Qijie glared at his fallen teeth and felt an uncontrollable urge to rush back into the ring to confront Kai!
“How dare you! You’ve already fallen out of the ring, which means you’ve lost! Do you really want to stir up trouble in Jia Ling County?”
At this moment, several guards surrounding the ring quickly rushed over, weapons drawn and pointed at Gao Qijie!
“Third Young Master, please don’t act rashly!”
Two servants from the Gao family rushed in to restrain Gao Qijie.
Gao Qijie’s face was filled with rage as he stared at Kai in the ring, saying, “Kid, just you wait. I’ll remember your face…”
But Kai wasn’t intimidated by Gao Qijie’s threats. After all, this man hailed from the far north, thousands of miles away, and it was unlikely he would ever have to deal with the Gao family again!
“Third Young Master, we should leave now and hurry to catch up with the Second Young Master!”
One of the servants whispered to Gao Qijie!
Upon hearing this, Gao Qijie replied with displeasure, “My second brother is just like that. For the sake of three worthless girls, he disregards big brother’s orders.”
“If he had come to Jia Ling County with me, I would have avoided this humiliation and wouldn’t have been beaten!”
With that, Gao Qijie shot one last glare at Kai before following his two servants away!
Once Gao Qijie had departed, Kai scanned the crowd, declaring, “Is there anyone else who wants to challenge me on stage? I can make this interesting with some bets.”
“If anyone dares to step up and loses, I’ll only charge one million spirit coins. But if you win, you’ll take home fifty million spirit coins and a plethora of resources!”
As soon as Kai finished speaking, the crowd erupted with excitement!
Having just witnessed Kai knock Gao Qijie out of the ring, they were initially intimidated. However, the prospect of winning fifty million for just a million spirit coins was simply too enticing!
“Let me have a few moves…”
“I’ll step up…”
“Count me in too…”
The crowd eagerly scrambled to get on stage for a chance to compete against Kai!
Seeing the rush, Kai quickly raised his hand, saying, “Hold on! Everyone needs to line up, one at a time!”
Turning to Liu Ruyan, he instructed, “Ruyan, please keep watch with the Third Elder. Anyone who wants to step onto the stage must pay one million spirit coins first!”
Liu Ruyan nodded and followed the Third Elder to guard the entrance of the ring, ready to start collecting the fees!
